Multi-Strategy Learning Boosted Colony Predation Algorithm for Photovoltaic Model Parameter Identification

Abstract

Modeling solar systems necessitates the effective identification of unknown and variable photovoltaic parameters. To efficiently convert solar energy into electricity, these parameters must be precise. The research introduces the multi-strategy learning boosted colony predation algorithm (MLCPA) for optimizing photovoltaic parameters and boosting the efficiency of solar power conversion. In MLCPA, opposition-based learning can be used to investigate each individual’s opposing position, thereby accelerating convergence and preserving population diversity. Level-based learning categorizes individuals according to their fitness levels and treats them differently, allowing for a more optimal balance between variation and intensity during optimization. On a variety of benchmark functions, the MLCPA’s performance is compared to the performance of the best algorithms currently in use. On a variety of benchmark functions, the MLCPA’s performance is compared to that of existing methods. MLCPA is then used to estimate the parameters of the single, double, and photovoltaic modules. Last but not least, the stability of the proposed MLCPA algorithm is evaluated on the datasheets of many manufacturers at varying temperatures and irradiance levels. Statistics have demonstrated that the MLCPA is more precise and dependable in predicting photovoltaic mode critical parameters, making it a viable tool for solar system parameter identification issues.
